This form looked as if you wanted to know how to reach Jhana. What exactly are you looking for by this post just people's personal experience? And keep in mind iam not a Buddhist

I never rejected them I just never emphasized them.

You need to simplify whit all this knowledge have you obtained peace of mind under any circumstances only you can answer that for your self I don't need to he answer. You gotta become empty.

Your never gonna get there with all this info. Sure you have a lot of book knowledge on this but, your makeing a fundamental error. I honestly feel if I told you anymore I would be doing you a disservice. The eight fold path is really simply put about manitaing a state of samhadi in all aspects of our lives. Here is a perfect example of haveing a cup to full. You need to become empty to experience Jhana your not empty cuz if you where you wouldn't be here. So go get empty and hey you may not even need this form anymore for guidance.

Ok that's a big question I'll start with this. cuz I fell like you mixing in so many different things here. Enlightenment in Buddhism is turning karma into Bodhi. Do you know what it means to have right thought, right action, right speach. I'd be more then happy to clearify it, but I'd like to see where your out so I can give you the right info. So what do these things mean what does it mean to have right speach etc? I'll get to the depression and what not after we clear this up.

It may be necessary for you to reach Jhana personaly. But understand the historical Buddha did abandon this practice. The Theravada sect may disagree but lam not one to argue these matters it's pointless bottom line is if you need to experience Jhana then by all means that is a nescescery experience you need to have and go for it

Ehhhhh hmmm yes and no. But I don't believe if many people meet a truly enlightened person they would even know it. Enlightenment in Buddhism is turning karma into wisdom. You very well may need to reach Jhana to do that. That is why I gave you instructions on how to.

But if seeking Jhana makes you happy then buy all means persue it. False dharma can be found In many western zen sects as well as the popular Tibetan Buddhist sect. That is a whole other discussion.

A felling of interconnectedness is definitely needed I agree with that . But Jhana is not enlightenment in Buddhism.

And you are looking to much into the info. Remember in zen they say to empty the cup.

That's not what is meant by false dharma: the Buddha himself warned against jahnna and your interpretation of karma from a Buddhist stand point is in correct. I wrote a arrival on this called Buddhism karma and the great sunyata under the Buddhist section you might find that useful.

You are the reason why these things are kept secret and I didn't say mandarin mandarin is a language like Cantonese . I said the ancient Chinese writing the actual text. And I will not share with you anymore information. Nor will I tell you what is meant by heaven and earth.I have already done what I wanted to on this form. Good luck to you

hint... it's not the stars and the earth.

What is meant when they say heaven and earth. Do you know what heaven is a reference to and what earth is a reference to here ?

What is between heaven and earth that's so small so subtle like a grain of rice. You'd have to be so aware to see it. It's like a riddle . Do you know what it is ?

I know the English. I want you to post the ancient Chinese not the translation. And that's not what is being referenced to in that phrase center between heaven and earth a size of a grain of rice. You are misinterpreting the poectic language

And you my friend are how cults start and why this info is secret.

And tell me how the ancient Chinese knew about the pineal gland?

Your trying to grasp all this with a western mind your turing this into something science can understand with science technology lol so you hav some information right but remember the Chinese where practical people. Do you know what it means to be practical?

At voids yin yang no not exactly you have some info mixed in with a lot of misunderstanding.

It is very important to understand that what is important here is cultivation of chi in the dantien. Which the hard part of that is getting in touch with Qi . O by the way it make take a hour of complete meditation to just be able to fell Qi. Hint hint hint. Then what's important is to compact that Qi . So in long men Pai the system is similar but language is completely different. And no one in history of nei Gong has ever written a book like kosta. And so we all know the only reason anyone cares about kosta is because his teacher can do amazing things and kosta refuse to tell anyone how to bring Qi into to tan tien compact etc.

In mo Pai it seems as if they simply say this is yin this is yang. So for example the mo Pai aspect of cultivation may say to cultivate yin you must meditate in caves. But in long men Pai they may say something like go to the cemetery or go to the cave to cultivate Qi from the cave or Qi from the cemetery. But mo Pai says you can get yin Qi from meditating In caves. From what I see mo Pai has moved away from Taoism and long men Pai is more connected to Taoism so they are both nei Gong science but they use language differently. Due to Kosta Danos the way he uses language makes people think who look into long men Pai it is just a Qi Gong system because long men Pai uses language different. It's a question of how you use language to describe aspects of Qi. So this is what iam here to clear up on this form. Mo Pai says meditation in caves to get yin Qi while long men Pai says cultivate Qi in a cave without saying yin. A lot of this confusion has to do with people getting to literall in kostas book.

The most important part of all this stuff is really just comeing to a place where you can let this moment be as it is live in the here and now and learn to let go. That's it but nobody does that If they did there would be no more of these so called masters to take people's money or dangle something over people's heads. None of this nei Gong stuff or confusing Buddhist stuff would matter and people may not be happy but they would be a peace with what is in this moment.

No not at all but there is a old Buddhist saying to tell someone the truth before they are ready to here it is to tell them a lie.

Well let's investigate what it means to be immortal. If you can see that this self is impemenent what is that that sees the self that is impermemt. I know this sounds philosophical but if you identified with that experience as who you are you would be immortal in a sense. That is one definition you say you don't believe in immortality so iam not gonna go further with you on the subject of Qi cultivation but in Buddhism if you could see the imperment self in what I described above you would then be immortal in a sense. All of that has nothing to do with the idea of Qi and immortality. A Buddha is not a Hisen
